Apple has built its own Maps service into iOS 6. Apple did all of the cartography for the maps and the app now supports turn by turn navigation. Siri integration is present as well. All transitions are extremely smooth, the app overall looks very well built.
Apple integrated Yelp reviews for local businesses into its new Maps application. Apple's Flyover integrates high resolution 3D imagery with the new Maps application, similar to what Google and Microsoft have done with their own mapping services.

Check out the gallery below for shots of Passbook in action. The passes are live, so things like gate changes and time changes are automatically updated.

Anandtech: Apple Updates Airport Express - New Design
As if this morning's monumental WWDC keynote was not enough, Apple seems to have a few more silent product updates in the pipeline. A quick look at the now updated Apple website, reveals a redesigned Airport Express.
The new design takes after the 2nd generation Apple TV, except for the color, which is in line with the traditional Airport enclosures. The dimensions of the tiny box are exactly the same as the current Apple TV.
The most notable additions to the new Airport Express is support for simultaneous dual-band 802.11n Wi-Fi, just like the Airport Extreme. Other usual features include the ability to perform the initial setup via iOS devices and support for AirPlay and Wireless Printing.
On the front, we have a tinier than usual status light, which should blink in the usual amber and green colors. The ports at the back are standard affair; power, one WAN port, one LAN port (still not Gigabit), a USB port, a 3.5-mm audio mini-jack for analog or optical digital sound and the reset button.
One of the major gripes I had with the older Airport Express was that it needed to be plugged directly into a power outlet, which made access to the ports rather awkward. Also, the design was extremely prone to falling off the power outlet, unless plugged into a power strip, flat on the floor. I am glad the new design finally resolves these problems by using a good old power cable.
The new model retains its $99 price tag and is shipping today.
